–Photo by Jennifer Peacock The Lakehurst Elementary School playground is open to the public until dusk. By Jennifer Peacock LAKEHURST - On most weeknights until dusk, the chain-link gate remains open to t he La kehu r st Ele mentary School playground. The rules are few and simple: besides being closed from dusk to dawn, the play area is only for school-aged children. There are
no beverages allowed in the play area, and no dogs permitted on school grounds. Visitors are asked to use the garbage cans for trash. When it’s dark, someone secures the playground with a heavy chain and lock. But weeknights are school nights. Most school-aged children
probably have homework, family dinners and other activities that fill their Mondays through Fridays. The weekends, school holidays and long summer break would be a great time to use the school’s playground and basketball court. However, the playground is locked.
The Board of Education and school administrators decided the playground needed to be closed up during the times after it was not only vandalized, but less-than savory activities were taking place by older persons there. Superintendent Loren Fu h r i ng and Board

The original language of the bill, introduced June 25, called for a $5,000 fine per offense for violators. However, the bill went through a revision in the Senate Environment (Bag - See Page 9)

NJ Heads Into Wildfire Season: What You Need To Know
By Kimberly Bosco On the heels of the Spring Hill forest fire that blazed through more than 11,000 acres of the Pinelands in Burlington County recently, the New Jersey State Forest Fire Service is speaking out to inform residents on what they do and what to expect when it comes to fighting fires.
By Jennifer Peacock MANCHESTER – The councilman loves the environment and wants it protected. But the state using environmental concer ns as another way to tax residents, not so much. “The bill started out as, ‘We want to ban plastic bags,’” Councilman Craig Wallis said. The bill went through the typical revision process, “and then they decided, ‘Well, now we need to charge for paper bags. …They also added in they want to build a committee to monitor plastics. To me, we pay more people to do
The Spring Hill fire sparked up a little less than a month ago on March 30, 2019. As the most significant forest fire we have seen this year, the blaze burnt through 11,600 acres of forest in Washington and Woodland Townships. Shawn Judy, Assistant Division B Firewarden, (Wildfire - See Page 4)

said that the fire’s cause is still under investigation. In the meantime, State Forest Fire Service officials held a press conference on April 24 to discuss the wildfire terminology, the process of prescribed burning, wildfire season, forest fires to date, and prevention as New Jersey heads into official wildfire season. Terminology Before delving into any new topic, it is beneficial to know the terminology. Trevor Raynor of the State Forest Fire Service fleshed out some of the common terms thrown around when people talk about forest fires. When you hear a fire described as “contained,” this means that “forward progress has stopped but it has the potential to escape,” said Raynor. A “controlled” fire is a fire that is contained on all sides, the perimeter has been stopped from spreading, but it is still “smoldering internally.” A fire that is “out” is not usually labeled as such until the area sees a major rainfall, Raynor explained. “Out” fires signify that there is no active smoking or burning on any branches, stumps, etc. in the wildfire area. Wildfires are not typically reported until they become significant. According to DEP Assistant Commissioner for Natural and Historic Resources Ray Bukowski, a The General’s
Prescribed Burning Over the past few weeks you might have noticed fire officials stationed along the roadside while a blaze heats up along the forest floor on major thoroughfares such as Route 539 or Route 72. This is called prescribed burning. “By using fire as a tool…that ultimately helps us to suppress fire,” and prevent fire from spreading, said State Forest Fire Service Firewarden Greg McLaughlin. While this may sound a bit backwards, the forest fire service is actually helping our forests. Prescribed burning season takes place from October 15 to March 15, said McLaughlin. This year, the forest fire service extended that time frame by a few weeks, making it a very successful one. The goal is to perform prescribed burning on approximately 20,000 acres of forest each year. This year saw 22,600 acres, he added. These controlled burns are small, according to McLaughlin; about 75 percent reach a maximum of only 10 acres or less. Prescribed burns target “ladder fuels” in order to eliminate the starting point for wildfires. Ladder fuels refer to the vegetation along the forest floor that allows a fire to travel upward from the ground, to low tree branches on canopy trees, to tree tops, McLaughlin said. Picture a fire starting in the shrubbery and spreading up tree trunks
–Photo courtesy New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection The recent Spring Hill wildfire in the Pinelands region remains under investigation. and branches –the name “ladder” fuels is a visualization of the process. “We’re trying to break that connection,” said McLaughlin. And it is no coincidence that the State Forest Fire Service chooses fall and springtime to perform these prescribed burns. Spring and fall seasons are peak wildfire season. Peak Wildfire Season According to McLaughlin, the spring wildfire season is much busier than the fall due to factors like humidity, heat, and wind. In springtime, humidity is down which
means foliage is dryer or has the potential to dry up quicker. The weather begins to heat up but the trees remain leafless, allowing for the sun to penetrate further into the forest. These are risk factors that combine to create what McLaughlin called a “high fire danger” day. During the spring, the forest fire service takes a “direct attack” approach to tackling forest fire prevention, especially on high fire danger days. To do this, they use a “build up index which is a cumulative drying indicator,” stated McLaughlin. If the index indicates increasing dryness over time, “we will put

Continued From Page 1 President James Malden didn’t elaborate beyond “drugs” and other things. Surveillance cameras caught some of the activity but not necessarily who was behind it. Those were reported to the school resource officer. One unidentified mother spoke up at the April 16 Board meeting and asked if there was some way to open the playground for use on weekends and holidays. Yes, there is a playground at Lake Horicon, but that attracts younger children, and the older elementary- and middle-school-aged children don’t feel comfortable frolicking

This mother was fine with her children crossing the highway to use the full court near St. John’s Roman Catholic Church and the Lakehurst Emergency Services building on the north side of the borough between Chestnut and Myrtle streets. However, she said many parents are not comfortable sending their children unattended, and cannot or will not accompany them or stay with them while they use the court. The administrators and Board agreed to reach out to the Lakehurst Police Department to discuss keeping the playground opened more. No promises were made.

Governor Phil Murphy: Fees Increase For Utilities Who Switch Suppliers, Causing Unexpected Charges
TRENTON – Governor Phil Murphy signed legislation that will increase civil penalties for energy slamming practices, which involve changing consumers’ electric power or gas supplier without their knowledge or consent. The law (A1683/S1990) will protect New Jersey consumers from the illegal practice of energy slamming. Penalties will increase from $10,000 for the first offense, and not more than $25,000 for the second and each subsequent offense, to $20,000 for the first offense, and not more than $50,000 for the
second and each subsequent offense. “Bad actors that engage in energy slamming prey upon New Jersey residents that are simply trying to keep their power on,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “This legislation will protect all New Jersey residents from deceptive and misleading companies that scam consumers out of their hard-earned money.” “There are overly aggressive operators preying on vulnerable ratepayers,” said Assemblyman Ron Dancer. “Seniors, especially, are often victimized by ‘slamming,’ having their electric
or gas suppliers changed and their rates increased without consent. The significant penalties established by this law are strong deterrents to energy scammers.” In 2016, New Jersey settled energy-slamming cases against third-party suppliers for almost $7 million. Two years earlier, the state attorney general and the Board of Public Utilities filed complaints against three power suppliers for deceptive business practices including slamming. Those companies settled for almost $8 million in restitution, according to Dancer.
“Any ratepayer is susceptible to slamming, but for seniors on a fixed income or families struggling to make ends meet, it is a threat to their financial security,” said Assemblywoman Amy Handlin. “This bill increases penalties to a level that will make deceitful marketers think twice about ripping off the public.” “Changing consumers’ electric power or gas supplier without their knowledge or consent is unacceptable,” said Assemblyman Daniel Benson. “Residents should always be kept informed when any change on their
energy bill takes place, especially if it results in a higher monthly payment. Raising penalties is a deterrent for these types of unfair, unscrupulous practices.” “In the past year, certain third-party energy suppliers took advantage of an unusually cold winter to change consumers’ energy suppliers without their knowledge or consent,” said Assemblyman Eric Houghtaling. “Energy slamming is anti-consumerism at its best and it impacts families in a way that hurts them the most, their budgets. This new law takes a much needed step to protect
residents from this unfair business practice.” “A number of consumers complained of these unauthorized changes which resulted in skyrocketing energy utility bills,” said Assemblyman Paul Moriarty. “Doubling civil penalties for slamming practices will help to discourage third-party energy suppliers from taking advantage of consumers in the future.” Primary sponsors of the bill include Senators Nellie Pou and Linda Greenstein; and Assemblymembers Ron Dancer, Daniel Benson, Eric Houghtaling, Amy Handlin, and Paul Moriarty.
Congressman Chris Smith: Charitable Groups Stress Need To Allow Donations To Be Deductable
WASHINGTON, D.C. During the week after Tax Day 2019, Rep. Chris Smith (R-4th) was joined by NJ charitable and philanthropic organizations in advocating for his new bipartisan legislation to give taxpayers maximum flexibility to make tax-deductible charitable contributions.
President & Publisher Stewart Swann
“In the first tax year since the 2017 tax law was enacted, we’ve already seen reports of a decline in the number of donors to charitable causes,” Smith said. “We need to fix the tax code to help make charitable giving affordable for every taxpayer, and my legislation provides that remedy.”
Smith’s bill, the Charitable Giving Tax Deduction Act (H.R. 651) - cosponsored by lead Democrat Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) - would allow charitable deductions to be universal and “above-theline,” giving everyone the authority to deduct charitable donations from their taxes

whether or not they itemize. “Charitable organizations perform so many vital services for those in need, and we must ensure they have the necessary support to continue their work,” Smith said. “Restoring opportunities for tax-deductible charitable giving would assist soup kitchens, homeless shelters, recovery programs, and so many other worthy causes.” Initial reports indicate that the total dollar amount of charitable donations in 2018 did not increase with the rate of inflation. Large dollar donations are doing okay but there is concern that relying only on large donations is not sustainable, especially since there was a decline in both the overall number of donors and the number of donations less than $1,000. NJ charitable and philanthropic organizations are supporting Smith’s bill: “Non profit organizations survive thanks to important donations from individuals,” said Adam Philipson, CEO and President of the Count Basie Center for the Arts. “If donations are not recognized as above-the-line, itemized deductions it will discourage philanthropy. Congressman Smith’s Charitable Giving
Tax bill restores the ability to receive those deductions and allows us to do the important work of not for profits.” “The Council of New Jersey Grantmakers supports the Charitable Giving Tax Deduction Act introduced by Congressman Smith,” stated Theresa Jacks, Deputy Director of the Council of New Jersey Grantmakers. “By making the charitable deduction available to all taxpayers, H.R. 651 will help mitigate a situation created by the 2017 tax law that is expected to cause a significant reduction in charitable contributions. The nonprofit sector is critically important to our society and is a key driver of the economy. The universal charitable deduction bill that Congressman Smith is sponsoring would democratize giving for all taxpayers. This is common-sense public policy that will help nonprofits and the communities they serve, which in turn helps our state and nation to thrive.” “As the 2019 Tax season comes to a close, many middle class individuals and families are seeing for the first time that their charitable donations may no longer provide the same benefit because of the provisions contained in the 2017 tax law,” stated James
King of the Office for Social Concerns of the New Jersey Catholic Conference. “New Jersey Catholic Charities agencies assist hundreds of thousands of individuals and families struggling to make ends meet. A substantial percentage of Catholic Charities operating budget comes from charitable donations. Now with the charitable deduction no longer a viable option for middle class individuals and families, non-profits like Catholic Charities could face unnecessary harm to their operating budget.” “The New Jersey Catholic Conference thanks Congressman Smith for introducing H.R. 651, the ‘Charitable Giving Tax Deduction Act.’ If signed into law, Congressman Smith’s bill would restore this tax benefit for the middle class and protect a vital source of revenue required for non-profits to sustain their operations serving those most in need.” “The Center for Non-Profits is grateful to Congressman Chris Smith and Congressman Henry Cuellar for sponsoring H.R. 651, which would create a universal income tax deduction for charitable gifts,” stated Linda M. Czipo, President & CEO of the Center for Non-Profits.

Continued From Page 1 and Energy Committee on Sept. 27. Businesses that violate the ban would be subject to increasingly stiff penalties: $500 for the first offense, $1,000 for the second, and $5,000 for the third and beyond. The Committee also called for a 10-centper-paper-bag fee, with 5 cents going to the state, and part of that paying for a “Plastic Pollution Prevention Fund.” Businesses would keep the other half. An identical bill was introduced in the Assembly (A4330) July 30 and referred to its Environment and Solid Waste Committee. Council President Joan Brush, Council Vice President Samuel Fusaro and Councilman Charles Frattini supported the resolution, which “urges Governor Murphy and the New Jersey Legislature to act quickly to protect all New Jersey residents by passing the statewide legislation banning the use of plastic bags and promoting the use of reusable bags.” Councilman James Vaccaro joined Wallis in voting no. According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, California became the first state to ban single-use plastic bags and

impose a minimum 10-cent fee per recycled paper bag in 2014. Hawaii has what the group calls a de facto ban on nonbiodegradable plastic bags. New York’s statewide ban will take effect March 2020, but exempts “bags distributed at the meat/deli counter and bulk food area are exempt, as well as newspaper bags, trash bags, garment bags, bags provided by a pharmacy for prescription drugs, and restaurant takeout bags. The law allows individual counties the option of placing a 5-cent fee on paper bags, with 2 cents going to local governments and 3 cents to the state’s Environmental Protection Fund. “One of the main reasons this is so important to us is because we are in the Barnegat Bay Watershed,” Manchester resident Peggy Middaugh said. She is business manager of EarthShare New Jersey based in Trenton, where according to the organization’s website its “members work within the community to educate the public and find solutions to our environmental issues and challenges.” “This plastic bag, plastic straws, plastic overload, is particularly detrimental to wildlife and the environment. It has a really big impact on the economy of the coast. We are very close and we have a lot to benefit from the coast,” Middaugh said.
The issue made it into the pages of the New York Times, where writer Brad Plumer made the case that banning plastic and using paper isn’t a black-and-white, right-or-wrong issue. Most recycling centers can’t handle plastic bags - they clog the machinery. He argued that plastic bags don’t cause much harm sitting in a landfill, despite taking over 1,000 years to decompose (we assume, plastics haven’t been around that long to know), but cause problems when they become litter and make their way to environmentally sensitive areas. It takes more energy to harvest trees and manufacture paper bags than it does to create plastic bags from oil, Plumer continued. “You’d have to reuse a paper bag at least three times before its environmental impact equaled that of a high-density polyethylene plastic bag used only once. And if plastic bags were reused repeatedly, they looked even better.” Even reusable cotton bags consume many resources - land, water, fertilizer, pesticides - to make. A 2011 British Environmental Agency study found that a shopper would have to “reuse his or her cotton bag 131 times before it had a smaller global warming impact than a lightweight plastic bag used only once.”
The guest speaker will be Capt. Muhammed M. Kahn, USN Deputy Cdr., JBMDL, and CO Naval Support Activity. Another speaker will be Dr. Horst Schirmer, one of three people still living who f lew on the Hindenburg. The ceremony will also commemorate U.S. Navy and Army losses, as well as fallen troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. The museum, located in Hangar One on the base, will be open after the me-
morial service. Not everyone is aware of the history that happened right in their back yard, said Carl Jablonski, president of the historical society. That’s why it’s so important to keep the memory alive. Due to base security, the event will not be open to the public. People must have a gate pass to attend. For information on how to apply for one, email NavLake@ Prodigy.net.
The United Nations Environment Programme issued a 118-page report “Legal Limits on Single-Use Plastics and Microplastics: A Global Review of National Laws and Regulations.” They found 127 out of 192 countries surveyed have adopted some form of regulation on single-use plastic bags. “Each year, more than 8 million tons of plastic ends up in the oceans, wreaking havoc on marine wildlife, fisheries and tourism, and costing at least $8 billion in damage to marine ecosystems. World production of plastic materials in 2016 was 280 million tons, of which about one third is single-use plastics,” the report said. Most plastic pollution comes from Asia, specifically China, but the report said the United States “is the largest generator of plastic packaging waste on a per-capita basis, followed by Japan and the European Union.” Back in New Jersey, there’s been no movement on the bill since late 2018. Some municipalities, such as Stafford Township, have taken it upon themselves to ban plastic bags. That ban went into effect Dec. 6.

MANCHESTER – Manchester Township Environmental Commission released this statement in conjunction with their “Reducing Our Plastic is Fantastic 2020 Awareness Campaign”. The campaign was approved by the commission at their April 11, 2019 public meeting and officially kicked off Earth Day April 22, 2019. The campaign will have commission members and volunteers participating in township events and educating the public throughout the year leading up to a celebration of Earth Day 2020, the 50th anniversary of Earth Day. “The damage from plastic bags, straws and other disposables is unsightly and damaging to our parks, waterways and community in
general. We are hopeful we can do our part to make great strides in changing behavior and becoming a model community,” said Commission Chair Peggy Middaugh. Commission member Rory Wells also stated “One aspect of the campaign includes the founding of our Environmental Ambassador Program which will give citizens a chance to assist the commission with our efforts and earn a limited-edition inaugural collectors pin. Many of our citizens already enjoy the outdoors but may not be aware of even simple changes that can reduce use of plastics in our town.” For more information, or to volunteer please email us at environmentalcommission@ manchestertwp.com.

Wildfire:
Continued From Page 4 out people actively patrolling the woods.” Normally, they will have people stationed in fire lookout towers to monitor from above. In the event of a high fire danger day, there will also be patrols on the ground. The forest fire service builds all of their equipment in-house so that it is specialized to get into those tricky, hard-to-getto spots in the woods in order to put out a fire. It is only for 35 days in the springtime that the department outsources for extra materials. During this time, the forest fire service spends approximately $250,000 to afford aircrafts that can dump water on a fire. When it is peak time for wildfires, they need all hands on deck and then some. Springtime is much more likely to see the spark of wildfires than summer, McLaughlin explained, because summer has more humidity and more rainfall. The wetness doesn’t allow the leaves to dry out as quickly. 2019 Fires & Prevention This year to date, the State Forest Fire Service has responded to 331 fires. Of this number, only four or five were considered “significant” fires, said Bukowski (one of which was Spring Hill). This number is significantly higher than what the department saw this time last year, which was approximately 200 fires (year to date). This was due in part to the
fact that “last year was the wettest year on record,” Bukowski added. As for this year, that is not the case. The department saw five reportable wildfires on April 23, 2019 alone. In New Jersey, 95 percent of wildfires are caused by people, Bukowski said. The forest fire service is simply trying to spread awareness to the public about the reality of wildfires and wildfire prevention in order to reduce the overall risk. Bukowski advises residents, “if you see smoke, or fire trucks, or fire personnel… have courtesy” and be aware. “We want people to enjoy the outdoors but we [also] want to keep people safe and our forests green,” he added. “Only You Can Prevent Wildfires” As we head into 2019’s official wildfire season, it is important to note that this year also marks 75 years of wildfire prevention with the 75th anniversary of Smoky the Bear. Smoky the Bear is the forest fire service’s national mascot who touts the famed catch phrase, “Only You Can Prevent Wildfires.” While you yourself might not be a firefighter working to ward off major wildfires this season, there are plenty of things you can do to prevent fires from starting in your own backyard. As Bukowski stated, 95 percent of fires are caused by people. For more information on prevention howto’s or the NJ State Forest Fire Service, visit state.nj.us/dep/parksandforests/fire/ aboutus.html.

Over-The-Counter Devices What You Should Know
Welcome Spring! Book Your Spring Cleaning Now!
Convenient Payment Options Available Most Major Insurances Accepted Care Credit Available
ROBERT J. VERDIER D.M.D.
Have you heard of the Over-the-Counter (OTC) Hearing Aid Act of 2017? The law, which authorizes a new class of FDA-regulated hearing devices, will eventually bring more self-treating options to the market for those 18 and older with self-perceived hearing loss. Self-treating hearing loss, however, can do more harm than good. Here’s what to know: What Does the OTC Law Do? The legislation, part of the Food and Drug Administration Reauthorization Act, will allow the retail sale of hearing aids for adults with self-perceived mild to moderate hearing loss — without the crucial involvement of an audiologist or medical doctor. When Will I See Its Impact? OTC devices will not be an official category of legally available hearing devices in the U.S. — currently the classification doesn’t exist and is being created — until final federal regulations for safety, labeling, and manufacturing are established, a process that won’t be complete until 2020 or 2021. Aren’t OTC Hearing Devices Already Available? You may be thinking of personal sound amplification products (PSAPs), which are wearable electronic devices used for activities such as bird-watching or TV-viewing to make
a sound louder — not to replace properly fit hearing aids. They’re neither FDA approved nor recommended to treat actual hearing loss. Will OTCs Address My Hearing Needs? They’ll address only mild to moderate hearing loss, and noise processing will be far less than a traditional hearing aid. Hearing loss is often an inner-ear problem, but PSAPs and OTCs can’t address other causes such as earwax buildup, a foreign object in the ear canal, or an ear infection. Why Choose Provider-Fit Hearing Aids Instead? Unlike PSAPs and OTCs, provider-fit hearing aids can address the full spectrum of hearing impairment from mild to profound. They’re already FDA approved, are recommended to treat hearing loss, and can adjust to environmental variables such as background noise as well as help your brain process sound. It may seem convenient, but self-treating hearing loss can bring long-term consequences. Professional testing, programming, fitting, and follow-up can identify hearing difficulties and help ensure the right solution for your needs. So don’t wait. For expert hearing help, contact our caring team today at 732-818-3610 (Toms River/Whiting) or 609-978-8946 (Manahawkin) or visit us at gardenstatehearing.com.
His offices are in Toms River, Whiting (expanded hours!), and Manahawkin. He can be reached at 732276-1011 or via Web site at gardenstatehearing.com. Dr. Izzy & Staff gives Retirement Community Talks!

H ere ’ s T o Y our H ealth Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
Don’t Get Pinned With Diseases You Don’t Have
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. When you purchase over-the-counter medications or receive a prescription, you take the pills with sincere hope that you’ll feel better. For sure, the pills may do the trick, for example, stop reflux, or relieve arthritis, but I also wonder if you know that the medications can suppress and deplete nutrients. You can fix this situation immediately if you know what nutrients are getting mugged out of your body. In the process of carrying out their intended effect, drugs can slowly deprive your body of the nutrients it needs to feel well and stay healthy. I call this nutrient depletion effect “drug mugging.” As an example, acid blockers can suppress absorption and act as “drug muggers” by reducing your levels of many nutrients, including calcium, folate, iron, vitamin D and B12. This impacts your energy levels, bones, mood, teeth and immunity. Another example is with statins which reduce CoQ10, vitamin D and selenium. This diminishes your mood, sexual abilities, immune function and thyroid levels. It can impact heart rhythm. As you take medications and therefore become deficient in vital nutrients, you begin to feel sick in different ways, or like something is amiss with you. You can’t put your finger on it. Doctor’s don’t think in terms of drug mugging, they think in terms of symptoms and diseases, so inevitably you get pinned with more diseases. For example, some drugs induce diabetes, by increasing your blood glucose, others cause depression by stealing magnesium. This situation is
preventable. Another example is with medications used for menopause, oral contraception or hormone replacement. These estrogen or progestin-based drugs appear to suppress many nutrients including the B vitamins, in particular B6, riboflavin and folate, along with the mineral magnesium. This can cause a woman to sink into depression, or develop nerve pain or hypothyroidism. I’m not suggesting you stop anything, but it’s common sense to restore what is being depleted from your body. If you have to be on a medicine, then for pennies a day, you can ‘insure’ your health and well-being. It’s not just medication, it’s also food and lifestyle habits. For example, coffee drinkers lose a lot of minerals. This impacts your bones and teeth, as well as your energy levels. If you love these beverages like I do, you can offset the loss of the nutrients by eating a lot of healthy green vegetables, especially leafy ones. You can also supplement. Staying indoors and not getting enough sunshine can suppress vitamin D. The drug-mugging effect is very real, and it happens with every medication. It is a well documented phenomenon that’s been known for decades. In an effort to protect you, I wrote a book on this topic that is available on Amazon, and in the German, Korean, Greek and Hebrew languages. It’s called Drug Muggers, Which Medications are Robbing Your Body of Essential Nutrients and Natural Ways to Restore Them. When you get a copy of that you can look up your medications and know which nutrients to restore.

Ocean County Officials Seek Input From Seniors
By Kimberly Bosco STAFFORD – Ocean County officials will be holding a public hearing to gather input from the public on how best to address the needs of seniors. The hearing will be held on May 9, 10 a.m., at the Southern Ocean Medical Center, 1140 Route 72 West, Manahawkin. The hearing, conducted by the Ocean County
Office of Senior Services, is open to seniors, caregivers and the general public. “It’s important we hear from our seniors and their caregivers to determine the needs of older adults living in Ocean County,” said Ocean County Freeholder Joseph H. Vicari, who serves as Chairman of the Office of Senior Services. “Retirees are attracted to the quality of life in Ocean
County. However, our seniors need specific services and programs as they age. Gathering their input helps us better assist them.” Ocean County Freeholder Director Virginia E. Haines stated: “Our Office of Senior Services does a great job in addressing the needs of our seniors through a host of programs and services…Whether
nutritional help, transportation services or outreach, hearing from our constituents is key to making sure our programs are meeting their ever-changing needs.” Contact the Ocean County Office of Senior Services at 732-929-2091, 1-800668-4899 or 1-877-222-3737 to confirm your attendance at the hearing. “The Ocean County Office of Senior Services serves as a focal point where older adults and their families can turn for information regarding services and programs and this public hearing is an important step in the annual Area Plan process,” Vicari said. “The Area Plan outlines our process for addressing the current and future needs of our seniors. It also assists in determining funding and the distribution of those funds.” The hearing will discuss home and community-based services that support independent living, community planning and events, and opportunities for older Americans to work, volunteer, learn, lead, and mentor. Get involved while also celebrating May as Older Americans Month. “Ocean County is proud to be home to one of the largest senior populations in the country. Our seniors – many of whom are veterans and have served in many conflicts throughout our history – bring so many special qualities to life in Ocean County,” Vicari said. “During the month of May we celebrate their lifelong accomplishments and recognize all of them for all they do.”

Today’s world is filled with scams. It’s becoming harder and harder to trust anyone. A new assault on victims is in the for m of L ot t e r y a nd Swe e p st a ke scams. These scams are becoming more and more common. They may come to you from social media, phone calls, mailings, e-mail and text messages-all saying that you have won money or pr i zes. T he sca m mer s may even try to impersonate public figures, police, FBI, Lottery and Officials. To make matters worse, they have also mastered the art of cloning otherwise legitimate web sites and social media profiles. So how do you know if your winnings are legitimate? Scammers like to ask for up-front payment, such as taxes, processing fe e s, del ive r y fe e s, legal fe e s or customer fees to collect your “winnings.” Any payment requested in advance should be a red f lag! The most common up-front payment request is a monetary transfer, because these are like cash. Other up-front payment schemes that are becoming popular include prepaid cards and iTunes gift cards because the scammers can access your balance if you give them the number from the back of the card or a PIN over the phone. Scammers may also ask that you send cash in the mail. Once you give them cash they are li kely to a sk for more a nd more. One trick the scammers use to entice

victims to send more Michael J.

T he scam mers may even th reaten violence. Never give these strangers your personal information. Don’t give them your banking information or credit card i nfor mat ion. T he scam mers will use this infor mation to make unauthorized charges to your credit card or access your bank account. The scammers can also sell your private information to other scammers. Some victims are asked to deposit fake checks and if that check bounces the victim will be responsible for the bounced check fee. If you have fallen victim to a scam you may be able to stop the damage.

Girl Scouts Of The Jersey Shore Requests Nominations For Phenomenal Women Under 40 Award
FARMINGDALE – Do you know a young woman who is making a difference, serving the greater community, or doing something phenomenal to help others? Recognize her! The Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore is accepting nominations until May 15 for the fourth annual Phenomenal Women Under 40 Awards. The event recognizing emerging women leaders in Monmouth and Ocean counties will be held on Wednesday, September 18, 2019 at The Mainland in Manahawkin. Candidates must live or work in Monmouth or Ocean counties and be under the age of 40 on December 31, 2019. Candidates will be evaluated based on their personal and professional accomplishments, philanthropic efforts and other exemplary qualities.

Submit your nomination today by visiting jerseyshoregirlscouts.org/phenom. For additional information, contact Tara Novak at 800.785.2090 or phenom@jerseyshoregirlscouts.org.

Gather topics from your news feed, social media, newspapers, books or magazines. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Focus on making new connections in the week ahead. Strike up a conversation with a stranger and by the end of the discussion you could be firm friends or have some refreshing information that could impact your home life.

Wolfgang Puck’s Kitchen This Pasta Recipe Showcases One Of Spring’s Most Delicious Vegetables By Wolfgang Puck ANGEL HAIR WITH ASPARAGUS, SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS, AND SHAVED PARMESAN CHEESE Serves 4 For the shiitake mushroom base: 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 6 garlic cloves, minced 1/4 cup (60 mL) mixed diced carrot, celery and onion 2 teaspoons minced shallots 7 ounces (215 g) fresh shiitake mushrooms, trimmed and coarsely chopped 1 cup (250 mL) dry white wine 1 cup (250 mL) chicken stock or broth, homemade or store bought 1/4 cup (60 mL) heavy cream Pinch chopped fresh thyme leaves Kosher salt Freshly ground white pepper For the mushroom pasta sauce: 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 3/4 pound (375 g) fresh shiitake mushrooms, trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces 1 heaping tablespoon minced shallots 2 teaspoons minced garlic 4 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) chicken stock or broth, homemade or store-bought 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper For the pasta: 12 ounces (375 g) dried angel-hair pasta 24 medium-sized asparagus spears, tough stem ends snapped off 1/2 cup (125 mL) freshly grated Parmesan cheese 1/4 cup (60 mL) chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves 1 ounce (30 g) Parmesan cheese, thinly shaved
Make the mushroom base: In a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and saute, stirring continuously, until fragrant. Stir in the carrot-celery-onion mixture, shallots and shiitakes, and saute about 2 minutes longer. Pour in the wine, and stir and scrape with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan deposits; continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until all the liquid has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Stir in the cream, thyme, salt and pepper. Set aside to cool for 10 to 15 minutes, and then puree in a food processor or blender. (If it seems too thick, thin with 1 tablespoon each of stock and cream.) Cover and refrigerate if not using immediately. About 30 minutes before serving, bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. About 15 minutes later, bring a wide, shallow pan of water to a boil. Meanwhile, for the sauce, heat the oil in a large saute pan over high heat. Add the shiitakes, and saute for 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-high, add the shallots, garlic, and butter, and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the butter has fully melted and incorporated. Pour in the stock or broth and 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons of the mushroom base. (Save the remaining base to improve the flavor of other dishes that include mushrooms.) Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to maintain a simmer, and cook 2 to 3 minutes longer. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Season the large pot of boiling water with salt and add the angel hair. Cook until al dente, tender but still slightly chewy, 3 to 5 minutes. After the pasta starts cooking, season the shallow pan of water with salt, reduce the heat to medium, and add the asparagus; cook until tender but still firm, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain immediately. When the pasta is done, drain it, add to the pan of sauce, and toss gently, coating it well. Remove from the heat and stir in the grated Parmesan and parsley.Adjust the seasonings to taste. To serve, divide the pasta, mushrooms and sauce among four large heated plates, spooning some sauce over the pasta. Arrange the asparagus on top. Garnish with shaved Parmesan and serve immediately.
